Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how The Arabic Keyboard (thearabickeyboard.com) handles information when you use our free online keyboard and related pages. We built this tool to be fast and private, and this policy describes exactly what does — and does not — happen with your data.

The text you type stays on your device

Our keyboard works entirely in your browser. The Arabic, French, or Chinese text you type is never sent to our servers. To make the tool convenient, your most recent text and your dark-mode preference are saved locally in your browser’s localStorage, on your own device. You can erase this at any time by using the “Clear” button, clearing your browser data, or using private/incognito mode.

Information we collect

You do not need an account to use this site, and we do not ask you for personal information such as your name or email to use the keyboard. Like virtually all websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard technical log data (such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited) for security, abuse-prevention, and performance purposes. This data is not used to personally identify you.

Cookies and advertising

We may display ads through Google AdSense and other partners to keep the tool free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites:

• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our site and other sites on the internet.
• You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors at aboutads.info.
• For visitors in the EU, UK, and other regions that require it, we request consent for non-essential (advertising) cookies before they are set, through a consent banner.

Analytics

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate, anonymized usage (for example, which pages are popular). Any analytics we use is configured to avoid collecting data that personally identifies you.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the GDPR (EU/UK) or CCPA (California), including the right to access, correct, or delete personal data and to opt out of personalized advertising. Because the keyboard itself stores your text only on your own device, you can exercise the simplest of these rights directly in your browser. For anything else, contact us using the details below.

Children’s privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Third-party links

Our pages may link to external sites (for example, translation services or reference resources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites; please review their own policies.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
